Work_issues:  multivariate series on 1 generator should remain different from a 
univariate series  |

Comment(by pernici):

 attached patch to be applied after
 applying trac_1956_multi_power_series_new_4.patch,
 trac_1956_uni_multi_ps_2.patch,
 trac_1956_multi_ps_cleanup.patch

 The univariate series has the property that its representation
 can be used to define it
 {{{
 sage: S.<t> = QQ[[]]
 sage: 1 + t + t^3 + O(t^5)
 1 + t + t^3 + O(t^5)
 }}}
 In the case of multivariate series this property does not currently hold
 {{{
 sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[[]]
 sage: p = 1 + x + y^2 + R.O(5); p
 1 + x + y^2 + O(x, y)^5
 sage: 1 + x + y^2 + O(x, y)^5
 TypeError
 }}}
 The attached patch is a hack to satisfy this property
 {{{
 sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[[]]
 sage: 1 + x + y^2 + O(x, y)^5
 1 + x + y^2 + O(x, y)^5
 }}}
